Welcome

- [Voiceover] Hi, I'm Ian Robinson.And welcome to Mograph Techniques:Retiming and Tracking Footage.In this course, we'll explore a real-world workflowwhere we'll be creating several different graphic buildsused to create a finished commercial.To build these graphics,we'll look at several different ways to track footageso you can make your graphics movewith the elements in the scene.We'll explore how and whento use mocha AE for planar tracking,as well as how to turn a simple, single-point trackinto 3D data so you can later create 3D graphicsusing Trapcode Particular.

Then we'll look at some color correctionand compositing techniques,using everything from the Roto Brushto isolate elements from their background,to Trapcode Starglow to give your graphicsthat bright, shiny look.Finally, we'll apply some retiming effectsso our finished clips can beedited back into our commercial.So let's get started with Mograph Techniques:Retiming and Tracking Footage.

Learn to add motion graphics and color effects to your footage, and retime the results. Author Ian Robinson starts with isolating and building the base composition and tracking the footage with mocha AE, and then integrates motion graphics that reinforce the narration. He also shows how to color correct and retime your composite, whether it includes media shot at normal frame rates or over and undercranked footage.
